"When angry, count to four. When very angry, swear." - Mark Twain

Well, when I said I would be blogging more often, I didn't think it meant a few hours. But I just felt the need to vent quickly. I was talking with Steve in the hallway (because we're having our floor meetings together tomorrow), and I realized that one of my bulletin boards had been written on. Here's the thing: I wouldn't care about it if I had all the time in the world to do bulletin boards. However. I do NOT have all the time in the world, the boards take a few hours to do, and it PISSES me off when people just write shit on them because they think it's funny.

I'm so sick of this job. I mean, I like some of my residents, but the job isn't fun for me anymore. It's not even like it's boring -- it's just taking up so much time and I'm bothered by things that I don't have time to be bothered with. I was really looking forward to this year because everyone seemed so cool. And most of them still are. But it's the few residents wiping info off of CAs' boards, tearing stuff off/writing things on bulletin boards, etc., who are really making this year hard for me. It's just a matter of respect, and it's so frustrating that some college students don't grasp the concept. I know that my freshman year, NOBODY thought of taking things off the boards or screaming things down the hall at 2 am or 8 am.... none of that is necessary, yet some people feel the need to do it.

I'm just angry. It takes a lot to get me angry, and folks, I'm there. I give respect to my residents, and all I want is to get it back. That's all. I'll keep you posted.
